Lost to UW Delver, beat Monowhite Puresteel and UB Control. Difficult to deal with turn 2 Runesteel Pike and turn 3 Geist when I didn't have mana leak in my opening hand. Oh well, I really like the deck overall.

Comments

This deck borrows heavily from Frank Lepore's BUG control deck. I took out the big drops of Consecrated Sphinx
and Karn Liberated
, as well as one land to put in three moderately costed Mayor of AvabruckFlipFlip. I like the Mayor much better because he has better synergy in the deck than the control cards, he is easy to put down, he boosts the Snapcaster Mage
s and you end up passing the turn a LOT with this deck, so he's easy to flip, forcing them to respond. Go for the Throat
and many of the sideboard cards are concessions for my local meta, so those can easily be changed around.
